Emergency pills (levonorgestrel and ulipristal)

Yesterday night (11h ago), the condom that me and my boyfriend were using malfunctioned and he ejaculated inside of me. We went to the farmacy and bought Norlevo morning after pill (1.5mg levonorgestrel). I took it right away (~2h after the intercourse).
Today I was googling about the subject and found out that there is another type of pill that has an higher success rate (EllaONe - 30mg ulipristal acetate). Can I still take this one? Will it reduce my chances of getting pregnant?

Thank you!

I agree with EllaMari. It is not a good idea to take 2 different emergency meds. Either give you Dr a call or ask the pharmacist if this would be safe or not.

I would call the pharmacy and ask the pharmacist. It could be dangerous to ingest such a large dose of hormones.
